The Rapido 1084032 is an HO scale single Comet II coach #6165 "John Cheever" in the Metro-North 1990s Scheme scheme (1998+). Metro-North's late-1990s Comet scheme — silver with a blue window band — on cars named for Hudson Valley people, places and literature.
Designed by Pullman-Standard for NJDOT and built in volume by Bombardier from the early 1980s, the Comet is the most recognizable commuter car in North America; most are still in service today. Match them with Rapido's F40PH and P32AC-DM locomotives.
